"Mr Field, this is frightening for a bm like me. How many of those scary looking wm are their? I hope there's not enough to hang us all. Why do you post things like this, to let our folks know that we are second class citizens?"

We are gathered here today to ceremonially fly the battle flag one last time before it is rightfully taken down forever, as it is a shameful and divisive symbol that has weighed heavy on our hearts for too long. (We likewise offer the one-finger salute, a humble gesture of respect and reverence in our part of the nation.)

We have seen the healing light of racial empathy and justice. All hail Obama! Praise be his name!

Al Franken said the same thing and didn't face the backlash from the media.

I have tremendous respect for McCain but I don’t buy the war hero thing. Anybody can be captured. I thought the idea was to capture them. As far as I’m concerned he sat out the war.http://www.salon.com/2000/01/10/voices/

There must be a good reason that the dumbocrat party expects better from trump than their own elected dumbocrats.

The government media points its finger and commands "hate", and the people comply.

A defeated people were allowed to keep their symbols for 150 years, but no more. The time for magnanimity has passed; today's leftists want obliteration.

In the name of tolerance, the liberal elite direct the masses to hate the traditional cultural remnants of legacy America. Today the focus is white southerners, but it can also be Christians, veterans groups, or Constitutionalist political movements like the Tea Party. We know they are evil and must be destroyed because the elite tell us they are racist in their hearts, despite what they may say or do themselves. We must hate, hate, hate them because we are filled with love. We are the Good.

By repressing if not outright banning the Confederate flag, liberals are not trying to destroy “racism”; they are trying to destroy what the flag actually represents: the South as a cultural entity.

Terms for this include “ethnic cleansing” and “cultural genocide.” This is what the Confederate flag jihad is all about, not racism.

One might think that a majority raised on the the idea that there are no greater rights than Civil Rights might step back and question what is going on before slavishly responding to the calls to hate a minority. But in truth, the whole enterprise was never about rights, but power. And as leftist power increases, this will become clearer and clearer.

"A defeated people were allowed to keep their symbols for 150 years, but no more. The time for magnanimity has passed; today's leftists want obliteration."

Magnanimity should never have been extended. The noxious, elitist ideology of the South's ruling class should have been rooted out when they unconditionally surrendered at the end of the Civil War.

At least the Allies in WWII made half a go at de-Nazifying Germany after the war.

The entire leadership class of the South -- Jefferson Davis, Robert E. Lee, and company -- should have been publicly executed by firing squad. Maybe if they had, our country wouldn't be re-fighting the same dumb battles over and over again as the South continually tries to recreate the medieval feudal system.

"Al Franken said the same thing and didn't face the backlash from the media."

What Al Franken said was still not as bad as what Trump said. Trump managed to make it nastier yet. But Franken's statement was nonetheless rather an unfair thing to say.

However, Franken was still a comedian when he said it. He wasn't running for office at that point and no one was really taking seriously much that he said. By time he ran for elected office, eight years later, no one gave a crap about his comedic utterances.

By the way, as long as we're on the topic of ripping into war veterans' records, there's one that can never be topped:

The entire Republican Party slandering John Kerry for all of 20004.

The only reason the GOP was able to get away with that shameful bullshit was that many veterans already didn't like Kerry for his previous Vietnam War protest.

"Yeah, the Confederate flag sticker on the back of a rusty pick up truck represents an 'elitist ideology'"

No, the terrible, aristocratic economic policies promoted by their Southern conservative politicos, aimed at piling up all of the wealth in the bank accounts of the handful of ruthless tycoons they serve -- THAT is elitism.

The opportunity to lord it over black people is the "consolation prize" offered to dumb white rednecks by those ruthless tycoons, in lieu of offering them an actual decent standard of living. They are suckers.

By every measurable statistical standard -- health, education, economic development, crime -- the South is an utter failure to this very day. This is not an accident. It is what inevitably happens when a few greedy lords of the manor are allowed to impoverish everyone else.

"Yay, I get to be poor -- but check out this here Confederate bumper sticker on muh truck. I is free! Yahoo!" -- mantra of the red state moron.

"No, the terrible, aristocratic economic policies promoted by their Southern conservative politicos, aimed at piling up all of the wealth in the bank accounts of the handful of ruthless tycoons they serve -- THAT is elitism."

Nope we already knew that. All one has to do is look at the crime stats. You hate us, EVERY race on the planet hates the Nig. Asians, Whites, Hispanics, I mins and Arabs ALL detest the black man above anyone else.

No other race wants you around. We all actively try to avoid you. But negros will always try to shoehorn their way in to places they aren't wanted because of their massive inferiority complex.

Blacks. The race with, by far, the least contributions to the human race.

"Real talk: Daniel Rubin has a great little piece up wherein he chats with The Field Negro, the Philly-based blogger who sharply ponders all things black on a daily basis. (Seriously, if you’ve never checked in with TFN, you should: Its author, Wayne Bennett, is a fantastic read who can cut through bullshit like a hot knife through butter, which is a far grosser analogy than I wanted to make, but there you have it.)" ~Philebrity~

"One of the most precocious and hilarious Black political minds on the net. Ive been a long-time fan!" ~Asad Malik~

"..While most of what he writes is tongue-in-cheek, his space is a safe house for candid discussions about race, especially in the comments section, where people of all colors meet."~~Daniel Rubin, "The Philadelphia Inquirer"~~

"To white people, Bennett's musings are like kitchen-table talk from a kitchen they may otherwise never set foot in. To African Americans, he is part of a growing army of black Internet amateurs who have taken up the work once reserved for ministers and professional activists: the work of setting a black agenda, shaping black opinion and calling attention to the state of the nation's racial affairs."

~~Richard Fausset, "L.A. Times"~~~

"That's why I love the blog "Field Negro" so much. Field, as he's known to his fans, has the sense of reality that it takes to call out the (CowPuckey) of blame beating by those who are in positions of power and their lackeys. Because of his handle and his unabashed way of writing about racial issues, Field is often cited as a "Black blogger." What he is, however, is a first-class detector of blame deflection and an excellent student of history. If you want to write about the past and future of repression there's really no other perspective to take - which is why everyone should read Field."

"Half a century after Little Rock, the Montgomery bus boycott and the tumultuous dawn of the modern civil rights era, the new face of the movement is Facebook, MySpace and some 150 black blogs united in an Internet alliance they call theAfroSpear.

Older, familiar leaders such as Rev. Jesse Jackson, Rev. Al Sharpton and NAACP Chairman Julian Bond, are under challenge by a younger generation of bloggers known by such provocative screen names as Field Negro, thefreeslaveand African American Political Pundit. And many of the newest struggles are being waged online."~Howard Witt-The Chicago Tribune~

"I had no idea, for example, of the extent of the African-American blogging world out there and its collective powers of dissemination.But now, after reading thousands of anguished, thoughtful comments posted on these blogs reflecting on issues of persistent racial discrimination in the nation's schools and courtrooms, what's clear to me is that there's a new, "virtual" civil rights movement out there on the Internet that can reach more people in a few hours than all the protest marches, sit-ins and boycotts of the 1950s and 60s put together." ~Chicago Tribune Reporter, Howard Witt~
